Marine vet picks up tab for active duty soldiers (story)

A Marine veteran anonymously picked up the bill for active soldiers, with a note: “Thanks for your service gentlemen.”

Instagram user ‘sgtseahawk’ posted an image of the receipt from Uncle Buck’s Fishbowl & Grill in Tacoma. He wrote: “Every time I think that no one cares that I’m a Soldier or about my sacrifice,… Someone redeems my faith in society. Thank You “Former Marine” for your Sacrifice and generosity! HOOAH!!!”

In the photo comments, ‘sgtseahawk’ told KING 5: “A former Marine picked up the bill. He didn’t introduce himself or even allow us a moment to say “Thank You”! I just want to give this stranger some recognition for his kindness to Soldiers. It’s such a rare thing. This random act of kindness… Made my day.”

Sometimes there is no better thank you to an active duty service member than the love from someone that’s been there.
